Rudy Giuliani turned his Twitter against former FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday.
In a since-deleted tweet, President Trump’s personal lawyer made Comey into a verb — meaning to “interfere illicitly with an election.”
“This usage derived from Comey’s interference in 2016 election by irresponsible press conferences and then leaking,” Giuliani added, along with a gif of Bashful, one of Snow White’s seven dwarves.
Left unsaid was a letter Comey sent Congress in the days before the 2016 election announcing that the FBI was again looking into Hillary Clinton’s private email use, a move that many political observers believe contributed to Clinton’s loss.
Giuliani targeted Comey in another tweet still visible on his feed:
Comey proven leaker of confidential FBI material directed the violation of General Flynn’s right to counsel and set up a false statement charge FBI didn’t believe was false. Comey interfered more in election than anyone. It has become a verb you shouldn’t “comey” an election.

I’m sure caretakers in senior living situations wish the disagreeable demented men they deal with wouldn’t watch FOX and then bore the caretakers to death rudying about politics all day.
A noun, a verb and some really stupid shit.
Somebody please escort gramps back to the rest home and get him back into bed and sedated. Please.
What Passes For Entertainment At Mar-A-Lago:
Produced by Vladimir Putin and directed by Donald Trump, who has a starring role, the new gangster movie The Badfellas, has taken the Republican Party by stormtrooper. Sitting in the theater, munching popcorn, Putin, Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping, Recip Erdogan, Bashir al-Assad, and Rodrigo Duerte were seen sitting chuckling among themselves at the clever efforts of Paul “The Gangsta” Manafort, Roger “Slippery” Stone, Rudy “Big Mouth” Giuliani, Kelly Anne “Red Queen” Conway, and Sarah Huckabee “Truth Killer” Sanders to cover up the heist of American democracy.
Showing at autocratic theaters everywhere in a limited run.
OK, this is too easy. Coming from the guy that never could figure out why people called him “Noun, Verb, and 9/11” that’s truly rich.
Irony…Dead.
